FOSSIL

The old rock perched gracefully on the hill.
Gazing longingly at the sky.
His wings were spread but stuck in stone.
He dreams, he wishes, he tries to remember when he could fly.

Millions of years have passed.
Time has ravaged the hill where he sat nesting.
Sand and silt, wind and rain, erosion has left him exposed.
A child goes by and picks him up now he's no longer resting.

HATE
Hostility, Malevolence, Repulsion, Revege, Abomination.
I hope hate never runs this nation.

FOSSIL
Specimen, Petrification, Deposit, Relic, Reconstruction.
Forever on display in museums accross the nation.


CAN YOU IMAGINE...
A world with no life
A house with no mice
A world with no flight
An earth with no light
A shepherd with no flock
A watch with no clock
A sea with no tide
A bus with no ride
Imagination the spark of all creation


CAN YOU IMAGINE...
A world with no looters
Internet with no computers
A bird with no wings
A bell with no dings
A ship with no hull
A beach with no gull
A world with no liar
A match with no fire
Imagination displayed all over the nation


I DON'T UNDERSTAND
Why people die
Why bears hibernate
Why some people hate to try
Why people like to be late
I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND
What killed the dinosaurs
Can there be other life in the universe
Why we have laws
Why people believe in a curse
I UNDERSTAND
How a plane flies
How a stall works
How to cook kai
How sound works


I DON'T UNDERSTAND
Why we sleep
Why disease affects us
Why the seas are so deep
I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND
Why space is so big
Why we see in colour
Why people created th Mig
Why my mum likes oddfellows
I UNDERSTAND
How gravity works
How bats find prey
Why predators lurk
Why we have days


JUST BECAUSE I'M SMALL
I'm not bad at everything
I'm not lonely
Or weird
JUST BECAUSE I'M SMALL
I can have fun
Doesn't mean I can't cook
Doesn't mean I'm not helpful
JUST BECAUSE I'M SMALL
Doesn't mean I like to be pushed round
Or like to be tormented
Or to be harrassed
JUST BECAUSE I'M SMALL --- ACCEPT ME FOR WHO I AM


WINTER
Swings in with howling winds
Not caring whats in its path
Unleashing her wet stormy hair
Leaving with no hesitation.

VANUATU
I see water clear as glass
I smell the warm morning air
I Hear the lagoon laping the shore
I feel dryness of the air
I taste the freshness of the food
I think i'm in paradise
